Changeling (Blu-Ray) £4.97


Changeling is a film, based on real-life events in 1928 Los Angeles, that stars Angelina Jolie as a woman who is reunited with her missing son – only to discover that he is an impostor. City authorities soon vilify her as an unfit mother and brand her delusional, leading her to question if she really is mad or not…

This high definition release comes with top quality picture and sound presentation, plus some interesting bonus material about the making of the movie. It's also well worth picking up to see a great performance from Jolie (and equally excellent direction from one Clint Eastwood too).

The Street: The Complete Series One to Three £13.97

The Street: The Complete Series One to Three

The Street was a BBC drama which followed the lives of various residents of the same street in Manchester, featuring an all-star cast (including Bob Hoskins and Jim Broadbent). Unfortunately cutbacks at ITV Studios, where it was filmed, meant that no further episodes could be produced.

Inside The Street: The Complete Series One to Three boxset you'll find all 18 installments ever made. There's a chance that extra features can also be found, but I've been unable to 100% confirm whether this is true or not.

Batman: The Motion Picture Anthology (1989-1997) (Blu-Ray)

Since the magnificent performance from Heath Ledger in The Dark Knight, many have forgotten how good at least two of the original four Batman movies were – the least said about Batman & Robin, however, the better (even George Clooney often says how ashamed he was of the finished product).

Batman: The Motion Picture Anthology (1989-1997), on Blu-Ray, contains excellent high definition copies of Batman, Batman Returns, Batman Forever and the aforementioned travesty that is Batman & Robin. You also get all of the extra features found on the Special Edition DVD releases, which are far too numerous to list here.

The Fast and the Furious Quadrilogy (Blu-Ray) £17.99

The Fast and the Furious Quadrilogy (Blu-Ray) contains a total of four cheap DVDs

Inside The Fast and the Furious Quadrilogy boxset you'll find The Fast and the Furious, 2 Fast 2 Furious, The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift and Fast and the Furious in glorious high definition. Also included are tons of special features looking at the making of the films and the cars used in them.

Completely Round the Twist £12.83

The Completely Round the Twist boxset contains some eight cheap DVDs

Round the Twist was an award-winning American kids series about three children and their widowed father who live in a lighthouse and get involved in all sorts of adventures. Oddly only four seasons were made in total – weird, as the show had an 11 year run!

Anyway, inside the Completely Round the Twist boxset you'll find eight discs which contain all 52 episodes produced. Also included are some interesting extra features, such as a "Where Are They Now?" featurette and a chance to sing along with the legendary theme tune.
